Pirate's Bizarre Adventure

Chapter 221 Mutual Use, Omen of Collapse

Say something.

The environment of the correctional center is better than that of the suspension area.

At least, the single cell that Charles arranged for Jon was large enough.

Although he didn't even have a bed, Jon wasn't one to care about those.

In addition to eating and sleeping every day, it is called a comfortable stay.

For four or five days in a row, the lighthouse provided him with delicious food and drink.

Jon himself was not idle, and picked up Ripple Qigong again.

practice.

I practice like crazy!
Ripple Qigong is good for this.

At any time, you can start from scratch.

Compared with a few days ago, his physique has obviously improved a lot.

"Whoo~"

With a long exhalation, Jon ended a week of practice.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground.

He thought about it, the cold treatment should be over.

Next, he should be summoned by City Lord Morgan to discuss some more private matters
For example, the future of lighthouses!

However, Jon did not expect that it was not City Lord Morgan who came to him, but Charles, the leader of the Church of Light and Shadow.

Charles invites Jon to have dinner with him.

Jon happily agreed.

In the gorgeous room dedicated to the head of the church, the two looked at each other across a long table.

The bell rang softly.

The chef in the white apron is orderly serving tonight's dishes
- Filet mignon, green salad and white bread.

"Eat." Charles smiled, then picked up the knife and fork very elegantly, "I'll show you."

Huh.

Who is this looking down on?
Jon ignored it, grabbed the steak with just the right temperature, and tore it like a primitive man.

Charles was taken aback.

Deep contempt appeared in his eyes.

Even if he has some knowledge, he is still just a dusty person who can't stand on the table.
He picked up the wine glass.

"Don't worry, there's food here."

Jon chewed hard, his cheeks bulging.

The poor and the rich.

Without energy in the body, even Ripple Qigong cannot practice smoothly.

Supplements are over.

Charles looked a little ugly when he saw Jon ignoring him.

However, he still suppressed the emotions in his heart well and said, "City Lord Morgan has no time to summon you these days.

Because he is considering the candidate for the next city lord. "

Hearing this, Jon moved.

Think for a few seconds.

He raised the corner of his mouth and evoked a smile, "It's not a consideration, it's already confirmed."

Charles' pupils shrank sharply, "How are you?"

"Why don't you think about it, my guild leader, isn't the situation obvious?

City Lord Morgan has determined the candidate for the next city owner.

And the next city lord is not you.

of course.

In your heart, the next city lord should be you.

So you want to act, you want to use some external force.

So you think of me, and the dustman 4396 locked up in the penitentiary. "

The situation is not difficult to guess, the IQ slightly higher than 100 can guess.

Jon licked his fingers and stared straight at Charles as if he were staring at another succulent steak.

"Tell me, what can you do for me?"

Charles put his fingers on the table, "Does that mean you're willing to help me?"

"Why not?" Jon leaned forward slightly. "That day, I saw almost all the upper floors of the lighthouse. Through observation, I think that only you are the most suitable for the position of the lighthouse lord."

very eloquent!

All of Charles' dissatisfaction vanished in an instant.

He had to admit that even though he was a mortal whose genes were inherently disadvantaged, this insight was indeed the only one for the lighthouse, much stronger than that old confused city lord!

"That's right, since that's the case, I won't hide it from you, I want to be the city lord.

4396, tell me what you think. "

ponder for a moment.

Jon asked, "May I first find out who Morgan City Lord has chosen to be the next City Lord?"

"Mark Hunter Commander." Charles said word by word.

"He?" Jon shook his head. "That guy may be a good person and can be an excellent hunting captain, but he is not suitable for being a city lord. He is too naive and weak."

exactly!
This idea coincides with Charles.

He saw this dustman more and more pleasing to the eye.

Charles asked again: "Now, can you tell me what you think?"

"Cup, of course, to seize power."

Jon said without thinking, "City Lord Morgan won't let you succeed, you can force him to let you succeed, anyway, you control the Church of Light and Shadow, and you have great power.

Just let City Lord Morgan breathe.Who can stop you at the lighthouse? "

So cruel!

But I like it~
Charles smiled slightly, "But you never thought about it, General Victor, Jing Nan and others around Lord Morgan."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Jon.

"They are completely indifferent.

Victor, a typical soldier, who is the boss listens to who.

Jing Nan may be very smart, but she has no ambition and can't beat you. "

"Can you see that I am ambitious?" Charles said with a look of interest on his face.

"Your ambitions are written on your face, my guild leader." Jon pursed his lips, "We can cooperate, but the premise is that you promise to help me improve the living plight of the dusty people after you become the city lord. "

"this."

Charles thought for a few seconds, then nodded, "No problem."

"Very good, then let's make a deal!" Jon raised his glass and gestured to Charles.

Seeing this, Charles also raised his glass to Jon.

"Pleasant to work with."

"Pleasant to work with."

Wait until Jon is brought back to the correctional facility.

Charles' face suddenly darkened.

There was a long silence.

He sneered.

"When I become the city lord, the first one to kill is you, a smart idiot!"

That's right.

He was going to take advantage of Jon.

Because he thought Jon was a smart guy, but not that smart.

He can completely kill the old city lord and then put the blame on this dusty person.

Ha ha.

dust people.

Let me ask, will the people believe the words of the dusty people, or will they believe the words of the leader of the Church of Light and Shadow?

The answer is obvious.

In this way, the goal has been achieved, and a candidate to take the blame has been found.

It's like killing two birds with one stone.

the other side.

The expression on Jon's face was similar to that of Charles.

"That guy should be thinking about how to get rid of me."

As he himself said, Charles's ambitions are almost written on his face, only honest people like Morgan City Lord and Mark can't see it.

As a bystander, he could clearly capture the mind of the leader of the Church of Light and Shadow.

Stop it.

Cooperating with this kind of person will only eat back at yourself in the end.

No.

'Collaboration' is a misnomer.

They are just using each other.

A few more days passed.

Jon finally waited for Lord Morgan's summons.

Compared with the last time, the old man's complexion was obviously gray.

"Lord City Lord." Jon greeted.

The word 'adult' was as casual as a cat or a dog in his mouth.

City Lord Morgan didn't care either.

"4396"

As soon as he spoke, Jon interrupted the other party, "If you can, call me Jon or Jojo."

"You named yourself?"

Jon asked back, "Can't you?"

City Lord Morgan was silent for a long time and said, "Yes, you are qualified to give yourself a name.

So, Jon, I have something to ask you about. "

Man, you really think of me as a consultant.

Jon complained silently in his heart, but he didn't refuse, "Let's talk."

"You said that there is a problem with the management of the lighthouse system, especially the 'three laws' formulated by me, which are full of loopholes, right?"

"correct."

Jon nodded, "Sooner or later you'll be done with this. I won't repeat the words I said before. I just want to eliminate the family form, and I want to eliminate human desires."

As he said, he gestured with his hand, "Hey, do you know the spring? The harder it is pressed, the stronger the rebound will be.

Not today or tomorrow, sooner or later the suppressed emotions will explode!
Your tower, oh no, our tower will be finished sooner or later. "

City Lord Morgan was silent for a long time, "Maybe you are right.

But who knows?
I have to ensure that the existing population is harmonious and stable! "

Note that the word he uses is 'stability', not development, because in the current context, development has become an extravagant hope, and maintaining the status quo is already burning high incense.

The elderly are very conservative, and it can even be said that they are too conservative.

Jon didn't want to discuss this issue with him in detail, so he changed his mind and said, "I heard that the next city lord, you chose Mark."

"You know? Charles told you!" City Lord Morgan narrowed his eyes.

But he did not deny it.

"Captain Mark is not suitable to be the city lord, he has no brain." Jon said, "Why don't you change someone else."

When will it be the dustmen's turn to point fingers at the successor of the mayor?

City Lord Morgan laughed angrily, "He can't, who do you think can?"

"Charles can do it, so can I." Jon said of course.

"Leave Charles aside, why, do you want to be the city owner?" City Lord Morgan still smiled.

Jon affirmed: "If I come to be the city lord, at least I'm better than you."

The ignorant are fearless.

City Lord Morgan shook his head.

"Many situations are not at all what you imagined, for example, why do you think I should let people suppress my feelings.

It is to avoid attracting the polar eater!

A strong emotional conflict will make the lighthouse exude an unparalleled attraction like a firefly in the dark. "

Jon thought about it.

"Is there a possibility that the lighthouse is flying back and forth around the world, and even if it attracts the polar-devouring beasts, they will not be able to come up."

"No flying polar-devouring beast has been found yet, but in case, I can't bet on the safety of the entire lighthouse!" City Lord Morgan said lightly.

So, this broken tower will end sooner or later.

Jon has a headache.

He admitted that he had taken it for granted before.

But he still insisted on his own ideas.

Lord Morgan was reluctant to talk much about this issue.

The conversation changed, "4396, you are very knowledgeable, even better than some Shangmin.

I want to give you the status of Shangmin and let you be the advisor of the city lord. What do you think? "

coming!

The sugar-coated cannonballs are still here.

If Jon was a native of this world, he might not be able to resist the temptation.

But he is not.

"City Lord Morgan, since the law of life divides me into the dust people, then I am a part of the dust people."

The Dragon Slayer Secret Art says, 'Never betray your class! '

Jon thinks so clearly
——I am not a second or fifth boy

City Lord Morgan shook his head regretfully.

At this moment, Jingnan broke in, "Sir City Lord. Captain Mark has trespassed in the Dawn Hall and is now confronting the members of the Church of Light and Shadow!"

"what?!"

Hearing this news, I really didn't get angry with the old man,

"Mark why."

"It's Ran Bing who wants to carry out the breeding task." Jing Nan lowered his head and explained.

"The two of them?!"

City Lord Morgan was shocked.

He remembered what Jon had just said.

'Preserving the principles of nature and destroying human desires'

This thing is like a spring, the deeper the pressure, the stronger the rebound.

And now, the rebound has come.

The next city lord in his heart, the desert hunter commander Mark, actually publicly violated the law of the lighthouse.

"In short, control people first." City Lord Morgan pinched his brows.

Jon twitched the corners of his mouth.

Although he had seen it before, there seemed to be a little sign between the captain Mark and the adjutant Ran Bing, but he did not expect it.Mark dared to publicly defy the lighthouse order.

See it.

This city lord, he doesn't want to do it.

Charles was worried that he had no chance to make trouble, and Mark gave him the handle.

Unsurprisingly, in the city master's room, Jon saw Charles who hurried over.

After reporting what happened truthfully, he smiled, "That's the way it is. Although many lawyers were injured, it did not affect the subsequent breeding tasks."

City Lord Morgan slapped the table angrily, "It's just nonsense!"

Saying that, he coughed violently.

Jon and Charles looked at each other, then nodded silently.

Charles walked up quickly and took out a potion from his pocket.

"Father, please pay attention to your body."

Father? !
Jon blinked, not expecting that there is such a relationship between Lord Morgan and Charles.

Charles continued: "Many Shangmins have seen Mark break into the Dawn Hall with their own eyes. I'm afraid this matter can't be concealed. In the current form, it would be inappropriate to deal with it in private.

If a court meeting can be held.

This will not only give Mark an opportunity to defend himself in public, but also give the public an explanation. "

Mark, look at people and look at you!
Are you not growing at all except growing taller?

If it wasn't for the conflict between Charles' pursuit and himself, Jon would be quite willing to support him as the city lord.

"That's it, hold a court meeting!"

City Lord Morgan said coldly.

After half an hour.

Mark, with a bruised nose and a swollen face, was pushed in by two lawyers.

"Prisoner Mark has been brought."

Mark was silent.

Charles coughed lightly and pleaded falsely: "Sir City Lord, Mark just made a small mistake, just fine some dedication points."

You see, this good man's character set has stood up for the first time.

Well done, Brother Charles.

Jon secretly gave a thumbs up.

General Victor said with his hands behind his back: "Mark's unauthorized replacement of the hearts of the dust people and the destruction of the breeding mission are all serious crimes that hinder genetic optimization!"

"According to the law, these are indeed serious crimes." Charles continued his supernatural performance, "But Captain Mark is not an ordinary citizen, he is a hunter commander who has made great contributions to the lighthouse, or is he about to succeed the throne. City lord, shouldn't his business be handled specially?"

"Then he should lead by example." General Victor really hit the mark.

Charles walked down the platform step by step.

"According to what you said, that is to execute Captain Mark? General, can you use your brain and execute Captain Mark before you go down to collect supplies?

Or, are you here to be the next city lord? ! "

"you!"

How could a pure soldier like Victor be Charles' opponent, and he broke the defense in a few words.

"This time is different from the past. The environment below is getting worse and worse. We can't lose another Wild Hunter commander. As far as I know, the Wild Hunter's personnel reserve is already stretched."

At this moment, Jon suddenly raised his hand and interjected: "Well, can I say a few words?"
